In the novel "A Tale of Two Cities" by Charles Dickens, describes a character named Lucie as being gorgeous physically and spiritually, and she owns a gift of bringing out best qualities of the ones who are around her. Lucie is symbolized as “the golden thread “that binds many of the characters' lives together. Many may criticize Lucie by her actions and influences on other characters, which tends to be overdramatic and full of sentimentality. In addition, Dickens portrays her as a compassionate, virtuous woman who inspires great love and loyalty in the other characters. For example, Darnay, Carton, and Stryver all court her and envision their futures being made brighter with her as their wife. Additionally, both Mr. Lorry and Miss Pross, who are without families, love Lucie as if she were their daughter and do everything they can to keep her safe. Although Lucie is a plane character, she is an important one. She represents unconditional love and compassion, and Dickens uses her to demonstrate how powerful these qualities can be, even in the face of violence and hatred.
